this is the Canada I know and love from watching due south on tv as a 90's kid, where the people in authority are good and where the good guys win and where there is ultimately peace and justice.
I love watching due south. All my friends hate it cuz it's a "old tv series that should never resurface" and I'm like whatever this is by far one of the best series ever-3
What makes me wonder is why this was cancelled after 4 seasons, while garbage such as one tree hill and the big bang theory have been going on for 8+ seasons
LOVE this show. Im soooooooo glad my mother had the sense to tape all the episodes she could find when she found out they were cancelling the show on TNT. Even though i was a lil kid when the show was on the air, its weird seeing the '90s commercials again... EXCEPT NOW I GET TO FAST FWD THEM!!! XD
This always reminds me of Saturday evenings when I was wee, we'd just be in from playing footy and my mum would have the dinner on, Due South would be coming on the telly and all was right with the world, no girl troubles, no job hunting ... just the adventures of an ever polite mountie and his wolf, Benton Fraser and Ray (the original one) were one of the best double acts in TV history.
Strangely enough, it was my initial error, some years after watching Due South that got me into watching Brendan Frasier movies, as I thought he was the one starred in this. And then came the realisation when I found out that it was actually Paul Gross. Top bloke in his own right, and I don't think the show would have been as much of a hit if he weren't in it.
@MrLunitunz Perhaps that is it. It has been yonks since I first watched the series and thought that, but the important thing is I know they are two completely different actors now.
Just watched another episode from season 1 :) this show is just different , more funny , sometimes absurd ,sometimes more like comedy show , sometimes great complex detective stories , and the great interaction between veccio and frasier . I liked it when i was like 10 and i love it now when i am 25 :) And its make me want visit chicago and Canada :) Just great !!!!!
Never understood why this series was never that popular in the states. I suppose it just is probably just a little too alternative for the folks at home who just wanna watch rules of engagement, 30 rock Becker etc. I suppose I should lump in everybody loves raymond and king of queens in there (despite the fact I actually quite like those two shows myself). But I do like the dynamic quirkiness between Fraser and Ray. Early nineties TV was the best. Twin Peaks deserves a lot of credit for that.
Loving the repeats of Due South on BBC. Such a great show. Great characters and storylines. The sort of stuff you could watch over and over without it being tiresome. Cheers for uploading!
What a great TV-Serie!I love it so much!But I never understand why Ray have to be written out of the Plot!Damn!But,it 's the Best Serial until they release My Name is Earl!!Fantastic!And this Song is Hammer!!
I used to listen to this track in the car when we drove home from our cabin, 200 miles up north. Fall was approaching, school was about to start again, so I was "due south". It was a bittersweet feeling.
siigh... i was so pissed that they cancelled after just four seasons. i wanted this show to go on for at least 10! but all of y'all who love paul gross, check him out in this other series called 'slings and arrows', its fantastic, and paul gross plays a character who is the polar opposite to benton fraser.
@shawnme08 Seasons 1-3 were shown on BBC2 this year/end of last. I have no idea why they stopped there (maybe they panicked as they only had space for a dozen shows about moving house or selling junk a day?) but the website reckons Season 4 is due to be broadcast (won't say when though!).
@spurnthemuse I'm not sure what you mean. It's true that the first two seasons of Due South had many episodes that emphasized drama (with comedic and adventure touches as well), but the last seasons (after the series was out of production for a year) were really more "comedic adventure" farce than drama. Fraser's "superhero" powers were exaggerated, for example.
I personally like the first two, more dramatic seasons better, but you may like the other seasons better
Oh memories, love this show, always wanted to be Canadian Mountie after watching this show, even though its on now and still great, it was special growing up watching it.
@shaz191185 Yeah I wanted to be one too, but then I was like, " Wait, I'm not a Canadian Citizen. Well looks like i'm going to be living in Canada for along time. Better start brushing up on Canadian history."
Does anyone know where I can download this song from? like maybe from itunes or some website? cause I really love this intro and I need it on my ipod! anyone?
Wow, did I just discover an argument between two five year olds...? yes, I believe I did... I had better just check all my grammar and spelling, punctuation etc. Lest I get ripped to shreds for having a dot in the wrong place. Thank goodness for the replay button, reading all that crap made me forget to listen to a great soundtrack, thanks for posting it .
@arieas well sadly wazzmastermax couldn't accept the fact that he lost a grammar debate, so I was simply responding. He REALLY doesn't like to lose and imagines other people are angry when they point it out. Perhaps he'll grow balls eventually.
@buck1888 I wish this show was on due south (see what I did there) here in Washington. I used to love it as a kid. I mean, I have 5000 channels and not one of them has Due South on it.
Am so happy the BBC is repeating this great serise. Takes me back to a very very happy childhood. The joy of watching it now [all these years later] as an adult is I pick up on things I missed as a kid. Things such as the comedy, the romance [just watched Part 1/2 of Victoria] and the great relationship/double act Frasher and Ray had. Add that togther with the legend [and star of the show when I was a kid] Diefenbaker and the best TV theme in history and what u get is...classic TV gold.
I really love Due South!! I remember watching it when I was like 7 and then there would be Superman or something on afterwards! I'm actually watching the whole series now on Youtube lol !
Yes indeedy, we Brits really did - & still do!! - love 'Due South'! Go Benton!!
Thank goodness for the good old Beeb deciding to re-run this series! from last month.
LKF: Callum Keith Rennie (played Stanley Raymond Kowalski, the 2nd side-kick) is originally a Geordie [well, actually the term in Sunderland is a 'Mackem' rather than a 'Geordie', but that's another story!] - yep he was born & lived in the NorthEast of England b4 his Scottish parents emigrated to Canada when he was 4yrs old!
Yummy!! Got into Huskies because of this programme 1st time around and yes it REALLY IS back on British TV thank goodness!! Something worth watching for a change... A great way to brighten up a bad day... Paul Gross is still good eye candy!
@WiccanHighPriest0 If you're going to be pedantic do it properly; I picked Michael up on there/they're, there/their, your/you're, nova scotia/Nova Scotia, iv/I've, due south/Due South, dident/didn't, wot/what, english/English, dont/don't, dollors/dollars, an newer/a newer, dont/doesn't.
Now your turn. Sentences begin with a capital letter 'thanks' and don't start with 'And'. Before you pick someone up for a wrong, make sure you're right;
or just read the meaning, this is YouTube not School!
@wazzmastermax my sentence started with a face. And you can hardly tell me this is not school if you've picked someone up on more things than I have. Also, check the Oxford English Dictionary - type in 'grammar myths'; sentences can start with 'And'. Before you try to correct someone else, make sure you know what you're talking about :-)
@WiccanHighPriest0 Aaah, It seems you missed the point of my picking someone up. Let me s p e l l it out for you.
I picked someone up to illustrate that you could do so all day, but to do so is futile... get it now? If not, ask a grown up.
Starting a sentence with 'And' is acceptable but should be used carefully and efficiently, you're probably not familiar with those concepts. Oh and my mistake... The OED states that faces are an acceptable way to start a sentence!? haha fool.
@wazzmastermax You can probably. learn English from your local high school teacher. They may charge a fee though. At the very least, they should be able to show you a dictionary for free. There is nothing about any qualification (look up the different meanings of that word so you don't think I'm talking about (your lack of) a high school diploma) for using the word 'And' at the start of a sentence
@WiccanHighPriest0 How can I argue with someone that starts their justification:
"You can probably. learn English from your local high school teacher." ...?
A full stop randomly in the middle, no capital letter for the broken follow on sentence.
I hired a teacher like you suggested and they let me look at their dictionary for free (very kind). Nowhere could I find justification for a complete sentence reading "You can probably." I rest my case.
@WiccanHighPriest0 An 'educated person' would proof read their work before submitting, especially when to err would be to embarrass; as the topic we are 'discussing' is grammar.
@WiccanHighPriest0 Enough said? From the man that can't write a sentence... that's a brave statement.
Oh, and 'proofread' can be separate or hyphenated too, this is the beauty of English. As far as I'm aware 'clearly an accidental full stop...' should still begin with a capital letter. Have we not been over this? 'A little slow on the uptake'; is that a phrase you're used to hearing?
@WiccanHighPriest0 That's the difference between you and I; I will correct my errors whereas you are happy for your substandard grammar to be released in open forum for scrutiny.
You can't criticize a positive I'm afraid, so I'll take your comment as a compliment! Thanks very much. Game, set and match I believe.
@wazzmastermax Unfortunately for you, you are wrong - you just tried to use 'Game, set and match' in the same comment in which you committed two grammar errors. The first was that you committed the classic error of trying to use the word 'I' when it should have been 'me' in that context, and secondly you followed the very common grammar myth of failing to use a comma before the word 'and' when a comma would have been sensible to use.
@WiccanHighPriest0 So we have moved from factual grammatical errors to the personal and somewhat subjective opinion of 'sensible to use'? We are scraping the barrel aren't we? By 'we', I mean 'you' haha.
I prefer not to use what's known among the educated as the 'serial comma', the one that comes before the 'and'. Do try and keep up.
Now go and spend another few days researching another poor response, you're boring me now - numpty hehe.
@WiccanHighPriest0 Don't be too hard on yourself, you put up an adequate but poorly researched fight that lacked conviction at the end. Take the 'experience' away for the future.
@wazzmastermax Why would I be hard on myself when I've won? Don't worry - like I said, lots of other people are bad losers too. But you could use the experience to improve in the future.
@wazzmastermax my comment was very original. I realise the reason you find that difficult to see is probably that you're so angry at losing, which is why you are now resorting to insults.
@WiccanHighPriest0 Quote from me: "Take the experience away for the future", followed by quote from you: "use the experience to improve in the future".
Original eh? Does the word Buffoon insult you? Wow, you must cry when it rains!!
@wazzmastermax I laughed but I actually feel sorry for you. If you don't even have the balls to accept that you lots (and thus your thoughts and the facts are NOT in line with each other), what are you going to be like if someone attacks you? Maybe you should start taking some self confidence classes or something
@wazzmastermax I laughed but I actually feel sorry for you. If you don't even have the balls to accept that you lost (and thus your thoughts and the facts are NOT in line with each other), what are you going to be like if someone attacks you? Maybe you should start taking some self confidence classes or something
@WiccanHighPriest0 Yeah right, I 'lots'... hmm. While we're back on the subject of classes, I refer you to the original topic of spelling and grammar.
Case well and truly laid to rest on that one. Now who laughs ;-)
P.S. I never get attacked because I'm such a likeable chap!
@wazzmastermax considering the fact anyone with working eyesight could see that I almost immediately posted a comment correcting my spelling, still me who laughs.
As for referring me back: you lost. Get over it. We're not on that topic because you LOST. Get a pair and deal with it instead of being such a crybaby

@michaelkeeble1 thanks. And just to be pedantic, it's 'they're' in that context :)
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 If you're going to be pedantic do it properly; I picked Michael up on there/they're, there/their, your/you're, nova scotia/Nova Scotia, iv/I've, due south/Due South, dident/didn't, wot/what, english/English, dont/don't, dollors/dollars, an newer/a newer, dont/doesn't.
Now your turn. Sentences begin with a capital letter 'thanks' and don't start with 'And'. Before you pick someone up for a wrong, make sure you're right;
or just read the meaning, this is YouTube not School!

@wazzmastermax my sentence started with a face. And you can hardly tell me this is not school if you've picked someone up on more things than I have. Also, check the Oxford English Dictionary - type in 'grammar myths'; sentences can start with 'And'. Before you try to correct someone else, make sure you know what you're talking about :-)
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 Aaah, It seems you missed the point of my picking someone up. Let me s p e l l it out for you.
I picked someone up to illustrate that you could do so all day, but to do so is futile... get it now? If not, ask a grown up.
Starting a sentence with 'And' is acceptable but should be used carefully and efficiently, you're probably not familiar with those concepts. Oh and my mistake... The OED states that faces are an acceptable way to start a sentence!? haha fool.

@wazzmastermax You can probably. learn English from your local high school teacher. They may charge a fee though. At the very least, they should be able to show you a dictionary for free. There is nothing about any qualification (look up the different meanings of that word so you don't think I'm talking about (your lack of) a high school diploma) for using the word 'And' at the start of a sentence
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 How can I argue with someone that starts their justification:
"You can probably. learn English from your local high school teacher." ...?
A full stop randomly in the middle, no capital letter for the broken follow on sentence.
I hired a teacher like you suggested and they let me look at their dictionary for free (very kind). Nowhere could I find justification for a complete sentence reading "You can probably." I rest my case.
I didn't really hire, that was "sarcasm".
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax clearly an accidental full stop. An educated person would know that.
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 An 'educated person' would proof read their work before submitting, especially when to err would be to embarrass; as the topic we are 'discussing' is grammar.
This isn't going well for you is it?
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax: An educated person would know that 'proofread' is one word. Enough said.

@WiccanHighPriest0 Enough said? From the man that can't write a sentence... that's a brave statement.
Oh, and 'proofread' can be separate or hyphenated too, this is the beauty of English. As far as I'm aware 'clearly an accidental full stop...' should still begin with a capital letter. Have we not been over this? 'A little slow on the uptake'; is that a phrase you're used to hearing?
Have another go.

@wazzmastermax A man who can't understand the dictionary when it provides only one way of writing a word.
As for my use of the word 'clearly' without a capital letter, at least I left it instead of deleting my obviously-accidental error.
You poor thing.
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 That's the difference between you and I; I will correct my errors whereas you are happy for your substandard grammar to be released in open forum for scrutiny.
You can't criticize a positive I'm afraid, so I'll take your comment as a compliment! Thanks very much. Game, set and match I believe.
Numpty haha.
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax Unfortunately for you, you are wrong - you just tried to use 'Game, set and match' in the same comment in which you committed two grammar errors. The first was that you committed the classic error of trying to use the word 'I' when it should have been 'me' in that context, and secondly you followed the very common grammar myth of failing to use a comma before the word 'and' when a comma would have been sensible to use.
Checkmate.
Who's the numpty now?
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 So we have moved from factual grammatical errors to the personal and somewhat subjective opinion of 'sensible to use'? We are scraping the barrel aren't we? By 'we', I mean 'you' haha.
I prefer not to use what's known among the educated as the 'serial comma', the one that comes before the 'and'. Do try and keep up.
Now go and spend another few days researching another poor response, you're boring me now - numpty hehe.

@WiccanHighPriest0 Don't be too hard on yourself, you put up an adequate but poorly researched fight that lacked conviction at the end. Take the 'experience' away for the future.
;-)
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax Why would I be hard on myself when I've won? Don't worry - like I said, lots of other people are bad losers too. But you could use the experience to improve in the future.
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 Haha, why didn't you just cut and paste my comment? Seeing as you couldn't think of anything original to say.
You really are a complete buffoon, hilarious haha.
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax my comment was very original. I realise the reason you find that difficult to see is probably that you're so angry at losing, which is why you are now resorting to insults.
Just use your experience for the future.
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 Quote from me: "Take the experience away for the future", followed by quote from you: "use the experience to improve in the future".
Original eh? Does the word Buffoon insult you? Wow, you must cry when it rains!!

@WiccanHighPriest0 You know, when you have to say that you've won... it's usually because you haven't.
Someone else even thought your last comment was spam! Does it need to be spelt out.
Poor poor guy.

@wazzmastermax no they didn't Hey think you've won if it makes youself feel better, it won't change facts though.
WiccanHighPriest0 1 year ago
@WiccanHighPriest0 Hey for once I agree with you, what I think won't change the facts...
... it just so happens that the facts and what I think, in this instance, are in line with each other. Take care little fella.
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax I laughed but I actually feel sorry for you. If you don't even have the balls to accept that you lots (and thus your thoughts and the facts are NOT in line with each other), what are you going to be like if someone attacks you? Maybe you should start taking some self confidence classes or something

@WiccanHighPriest0 Yeah right, I 'lots'... hmm. While we're back on the subject of classes, I refer you to the original topic of spelling and grammar.
Case well and truly laid to rest on that one. Now who laughs ;-)
P.S. I never get attacked because I'm such a likeable chap!
wazzmastermax 1 year ago
@wazzmastermax considering the fact anyone with working eyesight could see that I almost immediately posted a comment correcting my spelling, still me who laughs.
As for referring me back: you lost. Get over it. We're not on that topic because you LOST. Get a pair and deal with it instead of being such a crybaby
